All day tests and classes!



Recommended Posts

So I called and scheduled my psych evaluation the same day as my 4 hour "class" with the nutritionist and I was shocked to find out the psych would take 3 hours!! Apparently there's even a written test???

Oh goodness! I didn't get told a time for my classes or appointments, but they did want to do everything in 1 day. That day is February 17! I thought me having to wait 2 months for surgery was going to be torture.. how are you dealing with the wait??

Well, by the time I get everything done and have my physician monitored weight loss appts as required by insurance, it'll be 6 months that I've had to wait. So I'm just muddling along with all my other stuff. Shooting for a summer surgery date!

I have to see my pcp Monday to start my 6 mo supervised again because, even though I had it done, it has to be consecutive months and mine wasn't. I'm also scheduled for a sleep study on Feb 3.

I'm considering have my tires balanced and rotated while I'm at it LOL

Well, I'm done with my 6 months doctor approved whatever. I was just approved a few days ago for the surgery but I still have all these appointments to go to before we can schedule surgery. The date I want is tentative. :)

The test at the psych eval for me at least was a personality test that was a bajillion questions. Just a heads up maybe it's the same thing for you!

This is how mine was too and was only allowed like 2 hours to finish everything. Then I talked with the psychiatrist, well the intern, for an hour.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
